Music Ministry!yeah, so here i am bloggin about the MM session i attended tonight.
I must say i was very impressed with the guys and girls... they were remarkable tonight, the band was on the mark, the harmony was perfect for the girls, and michael, mello, michelle and Char did especially well to lead. I was very proud of them - not that i am in any place to be proud. It's amazing that they took their fellowship together to a new beginning, to new heights. Instead of a "concert", they made the session more meaningful. I think that is a magnificent feat since personally i think that MM has been fighting to get that message of praise through music, but somehow the notion of a "concert" seemed to centred on talent, ego, and performance rather than on being instruments of God. And tonight, they pulled it all together.
If anything, i've come to realise that no matter how ever we mis-conceive of Him, or disagree about social/earthly rules and doctrines, it's in these times and in your music that I really felt the true love and nature of God, something incomprehensible by our feeble little minds, yet something that can never be taken away, no matter how much we falter.
I think you guys and girls did well, and I'm pretty sure God is very proud of you. I know I am. And I am inspired. Thank you.
in the quiet in the stillness i know
that you are God
in the secret of your presence i know
there i am restored
when you call i wont refuse
each new day again i'll choose
in the chaos in confusion i know
you're sovereign still
in the moment of my weakness you give
me grace to do your will
so when you call i won't delay
this my song throughout my days
there is no one else for me
none but Jesus
crucified to set me free
now i live to give him praise
